Almost 1 Month Old!

So in a couple of days Lillian will be a whole month old! I can't believe it, this month has flown by. We have overcome her eating problem and she is steadily gaining weight, she has also gone through a couple of growth spurts but mostly maintained a regular sleep and eating pattern (one that includes sleeping 5-6 hours at night). We have enjoyed visitors and outings as well. Lillian is a great baby, we are very lucky!
James mom was here for a week, the visit was great but too short. James and I are trying to plan a trip out there in October.
For those of you who are wondering: Yes, we are sleeping just fine, and yes I hope that doesn't change; the dogs are doing just fine with Lily, Zoei is quite protective and has become less shy around visitors and Alex likes to sniff her things but stills keeps his distance from her ( and I think he was a bit disappointed she came back home with me yesterday after a long outing); and finally,we do Love our cloth diapers! even James, they are easy to use and no more gross than disposables.
So far things have gone exceedingly well. We love our little Lilu more than anything in the world. James is snuggling her right now giving me time to do some chores and have some me time :)
